Doc Rivers' LA Story

While some of you are debating who's the better coach, here's a great read about Doc's beginning adventure as coach of the LA Clippers. Very well written with a little style by Paul Flannery. Take a time out and enjoy:

I love doc, he is an excellent coach and I think the values he has instilled in our younger players is priceless. I feel much better knowing he is at the helm. Anyone know if he still brings up the Ubuntu concept? No one has mentioned it.

I agree, a lot of us last season blamed coaching for failures. How are people feeling this year? I really hope we can advance to conference finals but it's so hard to picture beating spurs or thunder in seven games without home court. Sort of demoralizing

Didn't miss the point and for sure not singling you out mate. I just though this was an interesting well written expose'. Keep up the good fight though as I know you always do.

P.S.

I'm also in the corner that thinks Vinny wasn't as bad as some here made him out to be. Sorta like what some people thought of DJ.

What a great read. Thanks for posting the link!

Doc has really changed the Clippers organization for the better and it's wonderful all his players have bought in. He may not be using the word "Ubuntu" now, but the concepts and spirit of team togetherness certainly are present and all the players are better because of it.
